Boxing Day

[Lozzles]

How about a big gammon joint (we can get great big ones in the market, good value), either Jen's veg idea or new potatoes, or a big tray of Boulangere potatoes (nowhere near as rich as Dauphinoise).
Plus - red cabbage?

Actually Di, that's the way I'm leaning at the moment. I love Dauphinoise potatoes, but I don't want to be peeling spuds for 12, so Jen's idea looks good and sounds really tasty. I also love red cabagge, so I could do that and freeze it. Fortunately the children that are coming are not fussy eaters, so they aren't a problem and I think SiL will bring a pud

Thanks for your help everyone

That sounds yummy Loz - I hope you all have a great day xx

I don't peel potatoes for Boulangere (I do for Dauphinoise), and the processor slices them
Another idea - *whispers* - frozen mashed potatoes

Well, in the end I served up the cold ham and turkey, hot red cabbage (yum) and Jen's potato and veg dish which was a great hit. Thanks Jen
My brother made a huge lemon pie and we all left the table stuffed

Glad my easy version of bubble and squeak was a success loz. It's a great family tradition with my lot so Z did the honours for us on Boxing Day
